This wedding photographer is using her expertise for a good cause after a natural disaster.
Among the items of damaged belongings laid out on the Floridian streets were printed photographs of relatives; both living and dead.
“I looked at them, and right away I knew what we needed to do with them, we needed to get them out of those albums, get them out of their frames because that’s what’s holding in moisture and that’s what’s causing more mold,” Kowalczyk says. The kindhearted photographer volunteered her expertise to “save family memories,” and is trying to digitize as many photographs as possible.
“From sunup to sundown every day I have been washing pictures, and drying pictures, and hanging them and cutting them out,” Kowalczyk tells“It’s therapeutic, I like to know that this is doing something positive for somebody who has had a really, really hard time.”
